Work created for visiting artists Steven Farrell, project involved grafting a fable with a non-related knowledge domain, recreating a secondary narrative structure where the narrative arch, and domain are both visible.

Featuring work(s) from Ten Chances Experimental Urban Artists Residency. The book was designed in collaboration with founder and director Patricia Healy McMeans. The concept for the book includes concepts of a full dinner party, where the dialog at the table is paramount to the overall experience. The book documents the inaugural season, and the work of its nine artists in residence in 2012.

Ephemeral research and publishing project proposed by MICA GD:MFA visiting artist Abbott Miller. The entire collection of first aid and red cross imagery is from my personal archives.

Open Book Workshop
2012

I Am Not Famous examines an alternative to a sixteen page book signature. Each eight-page signature, printed front and verso, was stitched into two gutters of the cover; with a significant interior tab. The work and turn pages were left un-trimmed, generating essentially four 11” x 17” interior posters. The page typography is turned upside down, and pagination is left broken.

The book uses personal journal text and photography originated at Gemini Farm.

This collaborative book was created by a Publication Design class at UW–Stout. The predominate theme of the book is a collected data set. The content is collected through a Q & A format. The group determined a series of fifteen questions based on general categories of interest. A sixteenth question, based on Occupy Wallstreet and The Other 99%, was uniformly asked through social media sites.

This studio workshop explores various aspects of font design and development for creative and expressive ends. Studio will emphasize a conceptual approach to the design of modular typefaces, from an ideation process rooted in hand-lettering to digital development using fontstruct, a web-based font creation application.
